Earning her keep


In my last post, I pointed out how chickens only lay eggs for so long (about 2 years), and then you've gotta figure out what to do with your out-of-commission hen.  We've been holding out hope for the last few months that some of our hens would start laying again.  I've especially been hoping our Easter chickens would lay some more of their beautiful blue-green eggs.  So I was very excited when I went to the nesting box this afternoon and saw a blue-green egg (haven't gotten one in months).  You've bought yourself some more time, Easter chicken.  Thanks for earning your keep!
